Elastic warp knit fabric

ABSTRACT

A Raschel warp knit structure of elastic (12) and non-elastic (10) yarns which produce a two-way stretch fabric. The new and unique feature of this invention is the stitch used to produce the fabric. The stitch consists of two groups of three chain stitches of non-elastic yarn into which is interlaced an elastic yarn. The elastic yarn traverses laterally in its path through the fabric to connect three adjacent wales.
